In the mean time I also wrote another patch.
Please let me know which option is better then I will make it 4/4 :
Subject: [PATCH] perf stat: use set_multiple_events() to select default
events
Select SOFTWARE and HARDWARE events, if no event is selected.
this avoids replicating same arrays and reduce book-keeping
OR
[PATCH] perf stat: fix default attrs and nr_counters
memcpy(attrs, default_attrs, sizeof(attrs)) is only required
if no event is selected and only need to copy sizeof(default_attrs)
and set nr_counters as ARRAY_SIZE(default_attrs) in place of hardcoded value
Also make default_attrs table small and simple
Complete patches :
